I am using ATL 2.0 how I can get current date time in DATE or VARIANT
format.

Try COleDateTime::GetCurrentTime

I'm not using MFC. I am using ATL COM. Is any way to get current date in
variant type

I think COleDateTime is effectively stand-alone, and can be used
anywhere. If you don't want to do that, have a look at its
implementation in the MFC source code and duplicate that.

CComVariant val;
val.ChangeType(VT_DATE);

SYSTEMTIME st={0};
VariantTimeToSystemTime(val.date,&st);

char month[50];
char year[50];

wsprintf(month, "%u", st.wMonth);
wsprintf(year, "%u", st.wYear);
